Micrometer to Centimaters conversion
Our micrometer to centimater(µm to cm) conversion tool is a free converter that enables you to convert from micrometer to centimater easily.
How to Convert micrometer to centimater
To convert a micrometer measurement(µm) to a centimater measurement(cm), divide the length by the conversion ratio. Since one Centimater is equal to 10,000 Micrometers, you can use this simple formula to convert:
What is the formula to convert from micrometer to centimater?
centimater=µm / 10,000
Examples
Convert 5 micrometer to Centimater
5 µm = (5 / 10,000) = 0.0005cm
Convert 10 micrometer to Centimater
10 µm = (10 / 10,000) = 0.001 cm
Convert 100 micrometer to Centimater
100 µm = (100 / 10,000) = 0.01cm
Micrometer
What is a Micrometer?
Micrometer ormicrometre, also called micron is a metric unit of measure for length equal to 0.001 mm, or about 0.000039 inch. Its symbol is μm. The micrometre is commonly employed to measure the thickness or diameter of microscopic objects, such as microorganisms and colloidal particles.
Micrometer can be abbreviated as µm; for example, 1 Micrometer can be written as 1µm.
What is the Micrometer used for?
Micrometers are specially designed for the measurement of tiny objects. They allow for the exact measurement of any item that fits between the anvil and spindle. Standard types of micrometers can be used for the acceptable measurement of items under one inch in length, depth, and thickness.
Centimeter
What is a Centimeter?
A centimeter (cm) is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI), the current form of the metric system. It is defined as 1/100 meters.
Centimeters can be abbreviated as cm; for example, 1 centimeter can be written as 1cm.
What is the centimeter used for?
The centimeter is used in all sorts of applications worldwide in instances where a smaller denomination of the meter is required. Height is commonly measured in centimeters outside of countries like the United States.
